A member of the public witnessed the moment a heavily pregnant Fiona Anderson jumped from a multi-storey car park in Lowestoft, a coroner has been told.

The 23-year-old was seen to fall from the top floor on Monday morning and was pronounced dead at 8.35am.

Her unborn daughter, due in June, was said to have died the moment Ms Anderson sustained her injuries.

During the opening of the inquest, it was also revealed that the bodies of her three children, Levina, Addy and Kyden McLelland, aged three, two and 11 months were later found by police in the main bedroom of their flat in the seaside town.

Their deaths were confirmed at 11.27am.

Ms Anderson had posted desperate messages on Facebook late the night before she died, talking about a recent break-up with the children's father, Craig McLelland.

Police have released CCTV images showing Ms Anderson a few hours later walking around Lowestoft from 6.15am before heading to the car park.

She died of severe head injuries but further tests are needed to ascertain how the children were killed.

Adjourning the case in Ipswich, coroner Dr Peter Deane, said: "I wish to offer my thoughts and condolences to the family members and all those... who have been touched by these awful and tragic deaths."
